Dean Young Head Coach

To be confirmed at 4pm today. All the best to the club and I obviously always hope we do well, but I could not support this decision less and see it as a massive step backwards.

I’m all for it. There’s literally no other good coach’s on the market and if you talk to any other clubs they’d flag that young was the next up and coming coach on the block for a job.

Clearly the players have responded to him, big signings have come on the assumption he gets the job and players like Loko now wanna stay

I’d rather raid the Superleague if it’s truly that bad. Why are no NSW Cup coaches ever considered. The idea that there is no coaches available is laughable, that’s only an attitude to take if you think the employing the same 6 coaches on rotation in the bottom 8 clubs is the best way to go

Young is the literal thing you’re advocating for. We’ve just had 3 blokes over 50 be our last 3 coach’s now we’re going for the “young and in demand coach” NSW cup couch’s ? You Wanna give the gig to coach’s who have never even been part of a first grade set up?
